DeSantis was not in New Hampshire on Saturday, but his campaign said the Florida governor will be back in the Granite State before the primary on Tuesday..

Meanwhile, in Manchester, there were long lines in the cold outside the Southern New Hampshire University Arena for Trump's rally Saturday night.
In fact, the line was so long, some people who had tickets couldn't get in.

Trump also used the polls, showing him up double digits, to take aim at his rivals.
"We're leading her by a lot. Ron is probably finished. He's probably finished. Sad. May he rest in peace," Trump said.

Funny, no mention of how big her rally was. 🤣
Haley holding a rally?
In a Gym?..................
Haley will do ok because of demcocrats who don’t have a primary can vote for her in the NH OPEN primary.
“We’re leading her by a lot. Ron is probably finished. He’s probably finished. Sad. May he rest in peace,” Trump said.

Lol
He’s still ahead of Nikki in actual finishes.
New Hampshire does not have an open primary.
Seriously if you’re going to vote and talk get educated. Look it up before posting.
Geez, I figure you don’t know how to research so click here and learn.

The system is rigged.
Yes it does... just declare as an independent then vote in what ever primary you choose.. the majority of independent voters in NH are dirty Bernie Sanders type of scum that do so to impact NH Republicant primaries..
The uniparty wins every time in NH..
Of course it is, but Trump broke the system in 2016. We need him to break it again for 2024.
Rhonda is a dead man walking. He’s going to keep in the race until his few remaining donors pull the plug.
Basically he’s burned all his bridges in Florida. He has nothing to go back to except being a caretaker governor.
DeSantis was finished when he started claiming things weren’t that great under Trump and then started picking at him. He damaged his own popularity and credibility which was actually quite high. He had a very, very narrow shot at making some traction if he had praised Trump’s policies and said he could bring the same “without the baggage” - instead he pivoted into saying the Trump years weren’t actually good and he caused the problems we face today. That creates another problematic narrative for his general election chances - if Trump caused the mess, why replace Biden - and why blame Biden? He also pivoted on COVID attacking Trump’s policies when DeSantis engaged in the same policies and should instead have run on his own record in beating the pandemic in Florida faster than much of the nation as a whole, and also on his getting treatments streamlined and battling the Biden Administration over its efforts to block treatments.
One of the most awful campaigns imaginable - he actually had a lot he could have run on...and didn’t...decided to delve into a tit for tat with Trump...
Most Democrats want Trump to win the primaries because they think he's easily beatable.
Haley will not win NH. Trump has a 17 point lead in the polls and we learned in Iowa that the polls are real. They're not illusory.
The race is effectively over. DeSantis needed to win Iowa to have any shot at building any sort of momentum. He didn't. Haley will need to do the same in NH. She won't. And even if Haley does win NH (and she won't) Trump will easily run the table on the remainder of the primary contests.

Getting into a tit for tat with Trump was a bad strategy.
DeSantis was never going win at that game.
Another gaslighting attempt....
Sure, desanctimonious, with single digit standing in the polls or haley in the 20's, will win the general election against biden, when Trump can't....

It’s true, many democrats are thinking this way.
However, some aren’t as cocky as they were a few months ago. Recent polling has them perplexed.
Correct. We have some data so we can make a reasonable guess. We were supposed to have a red wave in 2022. And no presidential election that year. The Democrats did well despite Joe Biden being the worst POTUS since Jimmy Carter.
This country is polarized. Due to Roe vs Wade, abortion is a big issue so Biden will use that to get a turnout from his base.
And just like we saw in 2020, they will stuff the ballot boxes with mail in votes.
“Most Democrats want Trump to win the primaries because they think he’s easily beatable.”
Just like 2016, when they VOTED for Trump.
I wonder if they’ll make that mistake again.
